Time stood still for a moment,

I held it in my hand,

A single shining drop

As bright and clear

As any diamond,

And as soft

As a drop of silk.

Time stood still for a moment,

I wished it upon a star,

Then the star hung

Suspended in the sky

As still as stone,

And I knew

I had my wish.

Time stood still for a moment,

The minute of bliss

Sitting on my hand.

I wanted to keep it forever

To show it to all who passed.

Worth more than any treasure,

How long could it last?

Time stood still for a moment,

I could see in it like a mirror,

See inside it,

The heart, bursting

With the gentle

Exuberance of

Love.

Time stood still for a moment,

And I took the diamond drop

And hung it around my neck

Like any common jewel.

But I knew it could not last,

For time must go on,

Like a mighty rushing river.

Time stood still for a moment,

And then I gave it back,

That single minute of bliss,

For I knew there would be another,

Though never one quite

The same.

And the star flew by again.

Time stood still for a moment,

And then it flew on by,

I wish that I still had it,

To have, to hold, to love,

But I shall have another,

Be sure of this,

For I am.

 

That was the poem I was going to write yesterday. You know, I was just packing my bags to leave on tuesday, and I am kind of freaking out, I know i sound like a big wuss, but I will be away for ten days, longer than ever before. I know, Iknow, buck up Tori, this is Disney Land you are talking about. While I am there my parents said the don't want me on the internet, so I will have to blog when I get back.  I don't think I havetime to put my story up, we are kind of busy.
